No. I don’t even think they are translated into English. But the film became an international success and has been translated into more than seventy languages.

Are you saying the film wasn't in English? Are you saying the books are translated into more then seventy languages except English?

No, Ian, read my post one more time. I’m saying that the film was not made in English, but it (the film, not the books) has been translated into more than seventy languages (including English).

How do you translate a film? That is my problem. Do you mean remade in English? Dubbed? Subtitled? Nothing else makes any sense to me.
I did reread your post many times and it made no sense to me. ![Ouch Ouch](smileys/smiley18.gif)

Oh, I see. It was a quote from Wikipedia. I’m pretty sure this one was dubbed.

Lets's forget that then.
Is it an adventure series?

Unusual. We normally prefer subtitles.

Never quote from wiki direct. I can look it up.

I found some clips on YouTube, and it is in fact dubbed. Unusual, as you say.
Not exactly adventure series, more humor.

If it is animated it would not be unusual. Is it animated?

Both the books and the film are European.
